#Txlege HB 105 will roll back a deal made last session by undermining the workers and families that make this state run. Say no to lowering workers’ wages!@amandaposson

🚨URGENT: The U.S. House is moving to cut federal funding and offload #SNAP costs on to Texas, forcing painful choices and pushing millions into hunger. This is not budgeting!! It’s a shameful passing of the buck and Texans will pay the price. Ā  bit.ly/ProtectMedicai…

The House-passed reconciliation bill would strip federal #Medicaid funding from 33 states and DC for covering lawfully residing children and pregnant adults, putting millions at risk of losing health coverage. State-by-state data in our research note: cbpp.org/research/healt…

Residents are less likely to come forward when they believe that reporting a crime or cooperating with police could lead to deportation or family separation. Fear hinders law enforcement’s ability to solve crimes, protect victims, and build safer neighborhoods. Luis Figueroa- Every Texan Chief of Lege Affairs

The House version of this bill is also dangerous but, as it moves through #txlege, SB 8 is far worse.

Luis Figueroa- Every Texan Chief of Lege Affairs reminds people that law doesn’t grant undocumented students any benefit that is not available to any other TX U.S. citizen or TX legal permanent resident. ā€œIf a U.S. citizen from Nebraska moved to Texas and was here for one year, they would get the in-state rates.ā€

I was an undocumented TX college student. Im NOT going anywhere- and neither is our movement. Lawmakers lacked the political courage to force a floor vote at the Capitol on the Texas Dream Act, so state leaders took a coward’s path #TXlege #Immigration texasobserver.org/texas-dream-ac…

🚨The #Senate is considering a budget that guts #Medicaid & #SNAP. Call 202-224-3121 and tell your Senators: It’s not right to strip health care from everyday people in order to give tax cuts to billionaires.
